example 2 - a person making 40k a year but somehow has 300k in cash (inheritance or whatever) and has a minimal rent payment... this person has technically almost no use for a stimulus check
Well one could argue example 1 should have had more savings... sure... one could also argue our fine companies could have had cash on hand for a rainy day but now want a bailout....
this is all incredibly stupid and will just accelerate inflation.... btw I am not getting a dollar, my parents are gettting $2400... care to know who stands to lose more if something happens?

No. If you have been making 6 figures for a while & only have $10k in savings, you suck at money management. Your own fault. |
Thats most of America... I don't fit into this group but again... tell me why corporations do not fit under the same standards?
